Magnet Poems

Tune: Did you ever see a Lassie?

Chorus:

Did you ever see a magnet, a magnet, a magnet?
Did you ever see a magnet pull this way and that?

On iron and steel, its pull is unreal!
Did you ever see a magnet pull this way and that?

Chorus

A magnet has action, it's called an attraction!
Did you ever see a magnet pull this way and that?

Chorus

 Magnets

(Author Unknown)

I am a mighty magnet,
I can be very strong.
But if you use me exactly right
Nothing can go wrong.

I can pick up many objects
But not everything you see,
I only pick up objects
That are attracted to me.

So take me now and try me out
And you will quickly see,
What different kinds of things
Are pushed and pulled by me.

Magnets attract
That's a fact.
Things like nails
And metallic pails
Magnets attract
That's a fact.
Things like cars
And lids on jars.
Magnets attract
That's a fact
Things like pins
And cookie tins
Magnets attract
That's a fact.


               

Compass Guide Poem

How do we know
Which way to go?
Look at the magnet
and it will show.

North, south, east or west,
For finding directions it is the best.

How does it work?
It' s as simple as can be.
The planet's biggest magnet is itself, you see.

The biggest, and strongest magnet of all.
Compared to it, all others are quite small.

Because of its size, it's pull is so strong
that all other magnets are pulled along.
Try as they might, for all that they're worth,
Magnets can't help but point toward north.

So the next time you're lost
without a clue,
Let a magnet find your way
to rescue you.
